What a juicy time for Ticket fans! If you’ve read the other posts about Richie Whitt’s article “The Hard Lie”, then you are rubbing your hands together in anticipation for The Hardline’s response. Lucky for us, they decided to go a few segments into the subject and tell their side of the story. It’s definitely good to hear someone involved put some valid points into the story rather than just reading an article from an outside source. I’m just glad Corby put his side in because the article really made him out to be a backstabbing snake.

Reading over on Whitt’s blog, a lot of people said they were probably going to miss the audio. Guess what. . .that’s what TheUnTicket.com is for! I broke them down by segments:

FINALLY!! The question “Where’s Greggo?” has been answered. New question is, “Where’s the Greggo drops?”

As a P1, nothing has been a bigger mystery about The Ticket than the story of The Hardline. We all know bits and pieces, maybe some inside humor, or something personal about the hosts themselves. Richie Whitt, of the Dallas Observer, wrote a riveting story called “The Hard Lie”. It’s the tell all story behind the Greggo / Ticket breakup. He did not fall short of his pre-story blog posts!

The story comes from all sides and is told in a very equal tone. Nothing is held back, well, except for the comments of most of The Ticket hosts who declined to be interviewed. None of them really needed to be involved in the story except one person, in my opinion; Corby. Walking away from this entire story I am shaking my head at how crazy the Hammer had become with drug use, lies and lack of respect to his friends and co-workers, but the one thing that really sticks in my head is how Corby handled things. Seems it might have been a good idea to have Corby’s side of things since this appears to be the hardest part for Greggo and kind of paints a bad picture of Corby.

Do yourself a favor and read “The Hard Lie”.
